Descripción del empleo

The successful candidate will join a consultant-led department alongside doctors in training from a range of grades and backgrounds. The appointee will be allocated a dedicated consultant mentor and will benefit from training opportunities within a well-established Anaesthesia Department that has a strong reputation for clinical governance, education, quality improvement, and research.

The department provides excellent opportunities to develop clinical and non-clinical skills within a supportive multidisciplinary environment. There is a well-established three-tier resident on-call rota covering theatres and obstetric services. The post holder will be expected to participate in the on-call rota, including the provision of anaesthetic services for obstetrics and undertaking third-on-call duties, supporting junior colleagues in the management of emergency cases across the hospital.

Under the supervision of the Consultant Anaesthetists, the appointee will assist in practical procedures, assessment, investigation, treatment, and day-to-day management of patients. Senior Locally Employed Doctors will be expected to work at a minimum level of CT3 or equivalent, with increased responsibility for assessment and management of unwell patients in the hospital, and, where appropriate, supervision of more junior trainees. They will be supported in this by the Consultant workforce.

Some administrative work will be part of the standard workload. In addition, active participation in audit is expected.

The applicant will also be part of an on-call anaesthetic rota on a full shift basis on a EWTD compliant rota. Consultant supervision will be provided at all times, and consultants are resident within the hospital for a minimum of 10 hours per day.

This post is suitable for doctors with a minimum of three years' experience in anaesthesia who wish to further develop their clinical skills and experience within the specialty. It is particularly well suited to colleagues who have successfully completed Stage 1 Anaesthetic Training and are seeking to gain Stage 2 competencies prior to joining or re-joining a formal training programme, as well as those pursuing specialist registration via the Portfolio Pathway within the specialities available on site.
